I recently came across a source citing that the word "Pennant comes from the land of Wales and was first found in the historic county of Flintshire after the defeat of the Welsh Kingdom of Gwynedd in 1284.
Factually that is bull crap because my dad always told me that the first pennant was constructed by his friend Frank Calhoun out of a Schlitz Beer Box behind the Wataburger in Russellville back in the 60's. True story.
